Turbowarp or Forphorus? 🙂 Quite a good game in terms of art, plays smoothly, but gets a bit repetitive after a short while.
I'm not gonna lie, this was the first idea I had. The reason why I scrapped it was because I didn't know how I could make it fun. And your execution proves that. You collect wood, get back, fuel your fireplace, and then repeat. It's just a never-ending loop, which really isn't that fun on its own.
Maybe adding more features like hunger and thirst—both requiring you to do a new series of action in order to survive—would be a nice touch to improving the game, but right now, the game doesn't really feel like a game.
Fun concept! I think the fire burns out a bit too fast though, but worth the play!
Neat little concept! I think it could be enhanced by having more visibility and perhaps obstacles or enemies to avoid, that complicate the process of traveling from point A to point B
Lots of good potential here tho and it's nice and simple to understand!
